the total cost to the economy $1.7 trillion. but guess what? it is $250,000 a year in additional tax cuts to those same 120,000 families and anybody that makes more than $1 million. ladies and gentlemen, all this has a cost. there is something called the tax policy center made up of experts. they did an analysis if they did all of these tax proposals. they point out that if romney ryan were elected, it would increase taxes by middle-class families by $2,000 a year. ladies and gentlemen, we have seen this movie before. we have seen this movie before. massive tax cuts for the very wealthy, letting wall street and big banks writing their own rules again. we know how it ended. it ended in a catastrophe for the middle class. ladies and gentlemen, i am telling you today, we will not go back to that.

we can either have a dynamic growing economy that produces opportunity or we can have a stagnant economy that fosters dependency. stick with the failed policies of the last four years for the next four years or get a brighter future. stagnation versus growth. dependency versus opportunity and upper mobility. that is the classic choice and clear difference that we are offering and what we hope people get out of this this debate is that choice. >> chris: it is interesting because for the last six months the romney campaign said this is a referendum on barack obama's record and now you are saying it is a choice. >> it is not a change in strategy. a phase of the campaign we now entered into. i think it is important. the president is trying to paper over his problems and has been trying to mislead and distort the record. it is a failed record. we think it was very important to point that out. look at unemployment. look at our poverty rates and the 23 million people struggling for work. now, at this phase of the campaign we think it is critical that people understand it doesn't have to be this

how is the economy doing? joined by alison kosik, new york stock exchange, to talk a little bit about this. alison, the candidates will be pressing each other on the whole issue of jobs. what does the picture look like for jobs? >> you know, with jobs, it is improving slowly, but the reality is it is just not great. we got another little sliver of information today from adp, it said private sector employment gained by 162,000 jobs in september, but this is just a clue of what to expect on friday from the government jobs report. that's really the biggie, the report that counts. it factors in the private sector jobs, it counts government jobs which actually have been shrinking and the expectation is that the economy added 110,000 jobs in september. and, you know, that would be just be okay, because the reality is we have got a long way to go. in early 2009, the economy lost over 800,000 jobs a month. this by the way is the year that president obama took office. compared to that, 110,000 on friday would be good.
